Gifts for radiant, youthful skin

For brighter, more rested eyes, try RoC Eye Repair Dark Circle Cream to help reduce discoloration and puffiness.
A lip volumizer adds hydration and holiday-ready plumpness, while a firming serum stick (retinol + antioxidants) and RoC Line Smoothing Night Serum Capsules deliver targeted anti-aging benefits without a complicated routine.
A facial roller/guasha set (beauty massage tool) is a relaxing, giftable extra that complements serums and creams
Winter saviors and quick refreshers
Cold weather calls for heavy-duty moisture. Aquaphor Repairing Hand Masks and CeraVe Healing Ointment are go-to remedies for cracked, overworked skin. For sensitive or redness-prone skin, La Roche-Posay moisturizer and Thermal Spring Water provide gentle hydration and calming relief. For late nights and holiday travel, keep a stash of hydrating or revitalizing under-eye masks for quick brightening and de-puffing.
Stocking stuffers for teens, men and serious skin-care fans
Keep teens on track with a simple bubble gel cleanser and lightweight moisturizer—gentle, easy steps to start a routine.
For blemishes, use acne patches (Dr. Ingraham recommends Neutrogena or JB Skrub). Plus, spot treatments like Neutrogena Stubborn Acne AM Treatment and Neutrogena Stubborn Blackheads make fast, discreet fixes.
Men who want no-fuss care will appreciate JB Skrub’s straightforward approach. For someone who wants a luxury-level repair, consider Senté Dermal Repair Cream or SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective.
Bonus: a Kitsch standard pillowcase helps reduce friction on skin and hair for better beauty sleep.
Whether you’re gifting a teen, a busy neighbor or a skincare enthusiast, Dr. Ingraham’s dermatologist-approved picks make healthy skin an easy present — and one that keeps giving.
